Abstract:
The present invention relates to compositions comprising, 1) as component I a compound selected from compounds I-1 to I-31, and 2) as component II a compound of formula II, and uses and methods for combatting harmful pests using the inventive compositions, such as phythopathogenic fungi and/or for the control of insects, acarids or nematodes. Furthermore, the present invention provides methods for improving the health of a plant using the inventive compositions.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a process for the preparation of the compounds II from the respective oxo compounds. Furthermore, he invention relates to a process for the preparation of triazole compounds from oxiranes II.
Abstract:
In a system (10) for managing a soil treatment business, an injection apparatus (12) is operable to inject soil treatment under high pressure down into soil. A control system (92) is associated with the injection apparatus (12) and is configured to collect data during operation of the injection apparatus (12). A data management system (801) is configured to receive the data collected by the injection apparatus (12) control system (92). The data management system (801) generally comprises a database for storing the collected data, with the data management system being accessible by the business for reviewing the collected data.
Abstract:
Rodenticidal soft bait compositions are provided which consist of a mixture, in the form of a paste, comprising vegetable flour, a fat which is not completely liquid at a temperature of 35° C. and at least one rodenticidally-active substance. The vegetable flour is present in the mixture in an amount of at least 60%, preferably 62 to 78%, by weight based on the total weight of the mixture. The weight ratio of the vegetable flour to fat in the mixture is 4:1 to 8:1, preferably 5:1 to 7.5:1. The soft bait compositions are extremely palatable to rodents such that rodents are encouraged to consume a sufficient amount to deliver a lethal dose of rodenticide in a single sitting. Also provided is a method for manufacturing the soft bait composition of the invention.

Abstract:
An injection apparatus for treating soil adjacent a structure has a handle and a manifold head attached to the handle. The manifold head has at least one inlet and at least one internal passage in fluid communication with the at least one inlet. A high pressure nozzle is in fluid communication with the at least one internal passage in the manifold head and is adapted for emitting a discharge stream of pesticide for subsurface injection of the pesticide. A low pressure nozzle is provided for applying a pesticide to the surface. The manifold head has a substantially planar contact member having a contact surface for contact with the surface beneath which the pesticide is applied. The contact member has a first opening in the contact surface in fluid communication with the high pressure nozzle and a second opening in the contact surface in fluid communication with the low pressure nozzle.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a method for separating an optically active hydroxy cineole derivatives by lixiviation and crystallization and enantiomerically pure optically active hydroxy cineole derivatives of purity greater than 99.5% that have been prepared by this process. The present invention further relates to use of the desired enantiomer having enantiomeric excess of at least 99.5% ee as prepared according to the present invention, for the synthesis of enantiomerically pure 7-oxabicyclo[2.2.1]heptane derivatives.
